Question

Responses

Force equals mass divided by acceleration.
Force equals mass divided by acceleration.

Force equals mass times acceleration.
Force equals mass times acceleration.

Force equals mass minus acceleration.
Force equals mass minus acceleration.

Force equals mass plus acceleration.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

Force equals mass times acceleration.

This is expressed by Newton's second law of motion, which is often written as \( F = ma \), where \( F \) is the force, \( m \) is the mass, and \( a \) is the acceleration.
